Chapter 116: News from Illya's Father (1/2 Update)
Hearing Malvina mention that fifteen years ago, a man claimed to be the leader of the Silver Oak Leaf Mercenary Regiment, Fang Qiubai was shocked.
"At that time, that man claimed to be Silver Oak, the leader of your mercenary group, and his name seemed to be Victor Scott. Malvina repeated with some confusion.
"And then, what about that person?" Fang Qiubai pressed his hands on the table, leaning forward and about to face Malvian, staring at the other party nervously.
"We just stopped for a while, and then we divided our things, and then you know, I was completely sober today. Malvina smiled bitterly, and then asked with some doubts: "You can still develop so many masters without your leader?"
"It's a long story, anyway, after the disappearance of the head of Silver Oak at that time, the mercenary group was disbanded. The current Silver Oak Mercenary Regiment has been re-established, and we are looking for the previous Leader. Fang Qiubai roughly explained.
"I see, but in that situation, the chances of survival are negligible, and you still have to be mentally prepared. Malvina kindly reminded.
"Although this is not good news, but at least it will be much easier to find the location where he appeared in the last place, and I still want to thank you for this news anyway. Fang Qiu said that he was very mentally clear.
"Call me when you need it. As she spoke, Malvina vanished.
Suddenly getting the news about Illya's father, Fang Qiubai, who was accidentally shaken by his psychology, did not hold the other party anymore, and slowly sat back down, falling into thought.
"Little brother, what surprised you so much?" Huang Yueying suddenly asked.
"Eh, will you ask me again?" Fang Qiubai, who was originally in deep thought, was pulled back to reality by Huang Yueying's words, and it took a while to realize that the other party was calling himself.
"Of course, you call me Sister Yueying, and I'm not allowed to call you little brother?" Huang Yueying said with a smile.
"No, I didn't react just now!" Fang Qiubai hurriedly explained. Compared with the respect and sense of distance that those mercenaries unconsciously revealed to him, Fang Qiubai preferred to get along with each other like this.
"Actually, the person Marvina mentioned just now should be Xiaoya's father who disappeared fifteen years ago, and I wonder how to tell her the news. Seeing that Huang Yueying and Zhuge Liang were both looking at him, Fang Qiubai patiently explained.
"Are you worried that she won't be able to accept the news?" said Huang Yueying.
"Yes, after all, Xiaoya's wish for so many years is to rebuild the mercenary group and then find her father. Fang Qiubai nodded without hesitation.
"Didn't you teach Malvina just now, why don't you know what to do when it's your turn?"
"yes, I didn't expect it to happen to others and myself, it's a completely different idea. Fang Qiubai replied with a bitter face.
"Master Kong Ming, what do you think?" Huang Yueying turned to look at Zhuge Liang sideways.
"Actually, you don't have to worry, the key is still on you. Zhuge Liang raised the feather fan and said softly.
"How do you say that?" Fang Qiubai was surprised, looking at Zhuge Liang with expectant eyes, and Huang Yueying on the side also looked at her husband with admiration.
"Although deception is not good, but white lies can be forgiven, don't mention the ghost clan when you tell her, just say that Malvina saw such a person in the Firefly Forest fifteen years ago?" Zhuge Liang smiled.
"Oh, Mr. Zhuge , what kind of solution are you. Fang Qiubai complained helplessly.
"When she learns about her father, she will definitely go to look for her, and you can't let her go by herself with confidence, so let's go to the Firefly Forest to find her father together." Zhuge Liang continued to say calmly.
"But, what if" Fang Qiubai was a little anxious.
"Are you trying to say what if the other party dies?" Zhuge Liang asked rhetorically.
"That's what it means!" Fang Qiubai nodded nervously.
"Fifteen years ago, fifteen years later, if you want to find a living person, you may not be able to find it, let alone a dead person, if you can't find it, there is naturally hope, if you find it, it may also be a living person, and the worst result is a corpse, but in the long search, the psychology will definitely gradually have psychological preparation, and there is no need to worry about causing a sudden blow. Zhuge Liang waved his hand indifferently and continued.
"But how do I think this is just going with the flow and resigning to fate?" Fang Qiubai asked with some confusion.
"Isn't that it? And don't you be able to recall even the dead? like me and the woman of Yagami. Zhuge Liang said with a smile.
"Well, I don't think it's possible for me to summon people from this world. Fang Qiubai didn't expect Zhuge Liang to think like this, and hurriedly explained.
"Then this kind of thing, I don't have a better way, I can only remind you, Malvina mentioned that at that time, this person ignored the horror of the ghost clan, and must go to the elven camp, then this person is likely to have a lot of relationship with the elves, if you really want to look for it, you might as well cut from the elves, it should be easy to get the result, as for whether to tell her the news, you can grasp it yourself." Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said.
Seeing that Fang Qiubai fell into deep thought after listening to his words, Zhuge stood up and said: "Anyway, there are still a few days, you might as well think about it carefully, I and Yueying will go back first, Nana will follow me first, and Yueying and I will observe the state of her and Malvina." ”
Seeing that Fang Qiubai was thinking about something, just nodding reflexively in response, Huang Yueying smiled lightly, waved her hand at the sleeping Nana, and then Nana floated up like a balloon and followed behind her, walking out with Zhuge Liang.
After thinking about it for a long time, Fang Qiubai still couldn't come up with an answer, so he simply stood up and walked out.
"Let's absorb today's magic crystal first, after the system is upgraded, it seems that no matter how much energy there is, it will not be enough. In his own words, Fang Qiubai came to the unmanned warehouse and directly absorbed ten fifth-level magic crystals, replenishing his energy to 52,900 points.
"Hey, it's good to have a meeting place for Yagami to practice, but it's a pity that I have been searching in the desert for almost a whole day to absorb this point. Fang Qiubai, who absorbed the energy and felt extremely comfortable, simply walked towards the outer courtyard.
Although it was getting late, the outer courtyard of the Silver Oak Leaf Mercenary Group was not deserted at all, and the mercenaries were scattered around the station, coming and going in a hurry, not knowing what Lu Dao was busy with.
A mercenary was guarding outside the door of the inner courtyard, and when he saw Fang Qiubai walking out, he hurriedly bowed his head and greeted, "Fang Protector is good." ”
"You're welcome, what are you doing here?" Fang Qiubai waved his hand and asked with a smile.
"I'm here waiting for Lord Dharma Protector to come out, because of the formation here, we can't see the situation in the inner courtyard. The mercenary replied respectfully.
"Is there something to do with me?" by the way, what is your name?" asked Fang Qiubai.
"In Lower Pierce, the lord of the castle has sent people to look for him several times in the past few days, but because no one has returned, he has been disappointed every time, but they have not said what is the matter. Pierce quickly explained.
"Okay, I know what you're doing, by the way, what are you busy with so late?" Fang Qiubai agreed casually, and then pointed to the crowd who seemed a little busy and asked.
"Everybody is exercising themselves, and a lot of people in the city are coming to ask for help lately, and everyone is a little busy all day long. Looking at Fang Qiubai, Pierce laughed.
"Oh, what are you busy with?" Fang Qiubai became interested.
"It's everything, but it's something we never thought of doing, like catching a chicken that has escaped, or repairing a roof, something very trivial. Pierce introduced Fang Qiubai with great interest.
"This kind of thing will keep so many of you busy? Don't you feel bored?" Fang Qiubai felt strange at this moment.
"Of course, we won't get bored, although these trivial things don't even count as tasks, but we are all in teams of two, and when we meet things, it depends on who completes them first. Pierce laughed.
"Hey, it's still competitive, what happens if you lose?"
"It won't be anything if you lose, but if you win, you can help the other party complete the commission, you can report your name with your head held high and listen to the other party say thank you, and if you lose, you can only wait for the next time. Pierce laughed, then pointed to the mercenary not far away and said, "You see, those who hold their heads up are usually the ones who won the bandit mission today, and those who sigh are all lost." ”
Fang Qiubai looked carefully and found that this was indeed the case, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Ha Luha, which of you came up with this, it won't delay your exercise, right?"
"Actually, this is what you mentioned last time, my lord, and then we tried to do it, and found that it really had a very different reaction. You also know that we mercenaries are generally not popular with the general public, and think we are rude and aggressive. But now everyone is completely different from the mercenaries of our Silver Oak Leaf Mercenary Group, they greet each other with a smile everywhere they go, even if they come back to exercise, they feel more efficient after they are in a good mood!" Pierce looked at Fang Qiubai with admiration on his face, and said excitedly.
"I'll it!" Fang Qiubai sweated wildly, he didn't expect that his reprimand to this group of mercenaries at that time would actually cause such a consequence, but it also showed from the side that the effect of this was indeed good.
"Well, you assemble everyone, I have something to say. Fang Qiubai thought for a moment and said.
